And the final lesson, and its final assignment We give to you this day Take whatever you have at hand And turn it into a weapon Take whatever feelings you have left And turn them into hatred

All fields lie fallow All the grounds are ripe with blood Words echo hollow When every ploughshare’s made a sword

All fields lie fallow All the grounds are ripe with blood Words echo hollow When every ploughshare’s made a sword.
